Tangerine Squeeze

Tap to rate

Light-bodied and refreshing, with a punch of fresh tangerine puree. This American-style wheat ale does not hold back on the fruit and is aimed at the New Orleans summer heat. Crystal and Perle hops sit on a base of five malts, including wheat. It is one of the brewery's seasonal beers, made for summers that the brewery calls really hot.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with soft wheat character and natural fruit sweetness, amplified by the prominent tangerine puree that carries through to the mid-palate. Bitterness remains restrained at 12 IBU, allowing the citrus and malt to lead while Perle hops add a crisp, clean backbone that prevents heaviness.
